Dear Astea

❝ ❝ These attempts are only useful for obtaining a reasonable start value for 'brute force'. As such they are used within PowerTOST.

❝ Does exact Owen's method in general do the same?


Don't understand your question here.

Owen's Q functions are a way of calculating the power exact. For the sample size 'brute force' as described above is nevertheless necessary since no exact closed form result for the sample size itself is known.
And this brute force can be shortened in using a reasonable start value. PowerTOST uses some sort of Zhang's formula to that end, regardless of the power calculation method used, "exact", "nct" or "shifted".
